USED Paul Reed Smith / McCarty 594 Cobalt Blue [05]

We’ve just received a beautiful, gently used 2023 McCarty 594 in Cobalt Blue!

The McCarty 594 pays deep homage to traditional guitar sounds while achieving modern perfection through PRS’s signature precision craftsmanship. It is a captivating instrument that perfectly blends a beautiful figured maple top, premium wood selection, a sweet and resonant tone, and exceptional playability—all designed to resonate with the player’s sensibilities.

The figured maple top features a beautiful grain pattern, and its combination with the vivid blue color creates a sense of luxury. Coupled with the iconic original Solid Bird inlay—a symbol of PRS—it exudes a stage-ready presence.

The neck is crafted from mahogany, and the fingerboard features East Indian rosewood. These materials produce warm mid-to-low frequencies and rich harmonics, supporting the deep, distinctive tone unique to the McCarty 594. The Pattern Vintage neck shape offers a comfortable grip, ensuring ease of play from chord work to lead playing.

The 58/15 LT pickups featured on this model are characterized by a natural response reminiscent of vintage PAFs. The true appeal of this guitar lies in its sweet, resonant sound; it produces a lustrous, transparent tone when played clean, and a high-quality lead sound that combines thickness and smoothness when driven. It also responds superbly to picking nuances, allowing the player to fully express their creativity.

Additionally, PRS’s proprietary two-piece bridge contributes to a rich natural resonance and excellent sustain. Combined with electronics designed specifically for the McCarty 594, it achieves a perfect balance between vintage-like tone and high practicality.

Weighing 3.67 kg, it offers a well-balanced, easy-to-handle feel while still delivering a powerful, resonant tone. Combining a beautiful finish, high-quality wood construction, and a sweet, expansive sound, this guitar embodies the essence of PRS. We confidently recommend this model to anyone seeking a vintage-style sound or a high-quality guitar suitable for a wide range of genres.

After purchase, we cleaned and set up the guitar at our repair center, ensuring it is in excellent condition both visually and in terms of playability.
